The electric SUV space is getting increasingly crowded, but Lee County shoppers looking for value need to look no further than the BMW iX. With potent dual motors, xDrive all-wheel drive, and plenty of luxurious touches, there's a reason Southwest Florida shoppers prefer the Ultimate Electric Driving Machine. Here's how the BMW iX compares to some of the competition.

BMW iX vs. Tesla Model X

The BMW iX currently offers a lower monthly payment when you lease (30K miles/36 months) and a lower interest rate when you finance than the Tesla Model X. The BMW iX also achieved a higher range than the Tesla Model X in testing by Edmunds – 377 miles, compared to just 313 miles. Consumer Reports rates the BMW iX at 84 – compared to 53 for the Tesla.

BMW iX vs. Audi Q8 e-tron

The Audi Q8 e-tron boasts an EPA-rated range of just 285 miles. That's not bad, but the BMW iX xDrive50 achieves 307 miles. Both vehicles offer all-wheel drive and plenty of luxury features, but the iX offers 516 horsepower, compared to 355 in the Audi. Only one makes sense for your commute on I-75.
